Sacramento, Calif. – Ballot drop boxes are now open throughout the state. All California active registered voters will receive a vote-by-mail ballot for the November 5, 2024, General Election. California county elections officials have begun mailing vote-by-mail ballots, and voters can expect to see their ballots arriving in the coming days. The vote-by-mail ballot voting period begins as soon as ballots are in the mail.
“Drop boxes provide yet another way for California voters to return their vote-by-mail ballot where it makes most sense for them and at their own convenience,” said Secretary of State Shirley N. Weber, Ph.D.
